Common use of Foreign Custody Clause in Contracts

Foreign Custody. If applicable and or necessary the Custodian hereby accepts the delegation of responsibilities with respect to each Specified Country and agrees in performing the responsibilities as a foreign custody manager to exercise reasonable care, prudence and diligence such as a person having responsibility for the safekeeping of the Company’s assets would exercise. The Custodian shall provide to the Board at such times as reasonable and appropriate based on the circumstances of the Company and any of the Company’s foreign custody arrangements, written reports notifying the Board of the placement of assets of the Company with a particular Foreign Depository within a Specified Country and of any material change in the arrangements (including the contract governing such arrangements) with respect to assets of such Company with any Foreign Depository. Under U.S. federal law, any part of a Fund kept by either the Custodian or any sub-custodians or Depositories in foreign locations (outside of the U.S.) is not insured by the FDIC. In the event of the liquidation of the Custodian, any sub-custodian, or any Depository, foreign branch deposits have a lesser preference than U.S. deposits, and such foreign deposits are subject to cross-border risks.
